Thanks for the info. Always good to hear it from the source. Appreciate it.

So I first tried on Damus on Mac. Sound worked. Tried on Damus on iPhone and no sound either way.

On Damus, heard nothing at first but then noticed the mute icon in the top right. Clicked that and got sound.

Bummer. Makes sense though as a charity relay. I don’t know much about the relay business but it seems like a lot of work and resources. I wonder if they could have made it a subscription for recurring revenue. Thanks for the answer.

I’ve had my LNURL disappear a few times, but never anything this large. Hope things work out.

I agree in a way. Overall, it’s too early to tell. I love the idea of Nostr and see how it could benefit, but that relies on continued use and adoption. Right now Nostr feels siloed within Bitcoin culture. However, the growth in use cases seems to be occurring rapidly. If that continues, I’m sure more will come and Nostr could grow into something formidable. Currently, the hype is driving the growth. But will it sustain over the longterm?

2023-02-13 18:04:54

- reply

Yes and yes. I would have loved this from the get-go. Though I did find Alby in the midst of trying to figure out how to get a lightning url and have appreciated its integration with nostr. Might be hard for me to switch back. But it is nice to have everything in once place as well. Overall, it’s nice to have options.

I’m unsure about the game inspiration, but the movie was terrific. I love several older Russian storytellers (Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky primarily), but I never thought to give their movies a try. I stumbled upon this one and now want to check out more. It was quite good. This movie was based on a book, Roadside Picnic, by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. This has opened a whole new world for me.

I’m loving the chaos.
"More important than all, is that we must keep in mind that Nostr is just a very loose set of servers with basically no connection between them, there are no guarantees of anything, and the process of keeping connected to others and finding content must be addressed through many different hackish attempts. To write Nostr applications and to use Nostr one must embrace the inherent chaos.” — #[0]

‘We request that Mr. Peltier be immediately released’: Witnesses who claimed they saw Peltier shoot the FBI agents later recanted their statements. Forensics that pinned the weapon on him turned out to be false. Even the account from the FBI agent of the vehicle that was followed into Jumping Bull Ranch was later changed to match the description of a van Peltier regularly drove, which was also proven to be false.

I have my Apple ID set on each device to automatically download the apps that I download on my phone. Sometimes I don’t use those apps on my other devices. Maybe this adds to the discrepancy of downloads and accounts.

I tried finding a url to use through cash app but never did. Finally signed up for alby and got my lightning url there. I use Zeus tied into alby and everything works well. Though I wish I could have just used cash app from the beginning.

Interesting. Thanks for the info. The overall function does seem similar to that of mastodon then, which I understand Nostr to try to differentiate itself from. Relays are different than mastodon servers in function yet may still have the same issues when it comes to moderation.

In my unscientific experiments last night, a lot of the spam was coming from the damus relay. I’m connected to a lot of the paid relays but still want the free ones too.

On the one hand, I hate all the spam on global. But on the other hand, I appreciate that the “global” feed is actually international with various languages floating through it.
